For this special production of Bersalis Kadet the beer continues to age in wooden barrels after the main fermentation. For this purpose barrels were selected in which Oud Beersel’s Lambic beer has previously matured.
As the Pediococcus and Brettanomyces are present in both the barrel and the ambient air, the beer undergoes a second fermentation in the wooden barrels. This is how the Brett character develops and how fresh sourness is created in this light and bitter beer.
After 12 months of ripening in wooden barrels this unique beer undergoes a third fermentation in the bottle resulting in an optimal taste experience.

Shared @ Koelschtrinker's tasting. Smooth sourish beginning. The beer starts not too deep, horse blanket and wood there, tart and dry. The sourness is on the bitter tart side, wood is there, not too much aroma beside this.

Bottle at Beer Merchants Tap. It pours bright golden - dry with a medium white medium white head. The aroma is grape must, apple skin, funk, brett, straw, cracker, tonic water, dry wood and bit floral. The taste is firmly dry, crisp, dry wood, lemon peel, musty, funky, granny smith apple skin, pear skin, bit of sherbet, straw, tonic water and pith with a drying finish. Light - medium body and high, foamy carbonation. Grew on me. Quite dry and crisp. Quenching.
